Adel would still be occupied with his travels, seeking as much knowledge in the vast academic institutions across the realms, at his stop by a seemingly unremarkable hamlet, he'd come across fliers, showcasing the Shawarma establishment in all its glory, his stomach growled, it had been years since he'd had a taste of home-cooked food "I suppose it's time I make my way back home!"

The aged Hakim receives news of his Granddaughter's marriage via his trusted falcon, overjoyed at both her return to the Oasis, her wedding, and a long awaited reunion, the Emir galloped at full speed towards the Oasis, arriving in the dead of night, he'd immediately begin putting up the tent typical of the Badawi Majlises and weddings, and placing artworks he'd kept from decades prior along its walls, all while barely containing his own joy!

Hakim Bin Mutayr, old as he was, would be deep in the deserts, passing by an abandoned well during his hunting trip, as he did so, he'd find the piece of Parchment detailing the latest news in the Oasis "I suppose we shall see if the New can truly learn from the Old..."

Hakim would slam his fist against the wall, his anger becoming ever more obvious as he did so "These damned fools, they treat each other's lives as though it is but a trinket to take, in their arrogance, they believe they have the right to take the lives that their Lord had granted their fellows, may their Ignorance and idiocy be the end of them." he'd state in his rage, however his attitude would sooth as he'd see his servant come around the corner with a warm glass of camel milk "Send word to my son, Abdi, this Fitnah must be stopped."

Hakim had spent the day strolling about the Orchards of his home, making his way through the dense shrubbery that collected outside the walls as news would be brought to him, by way of his daughter, of his dear friend's passing, stumbling back a few, he'd been completely off-guard, the bold ranger and caring friend he'd met all those years ago, was now gone "Allah has given a great Honor to the fields of Elysium, for our Sadiq will rest there forever, may she be remembered, praised and honored until the end." he'd mutter, as a few solemn tears streamed down onto his beard.

Hakim Al-Hattan reads over a flyer his children had handed to him, as he'd wander the streets he'd see the excitement and anticipation evident on all the local's faces "You've once again outdone yourself, Zahra!"

News would be brought to the aged Emir as he'd been seated in the Masjid, going through a number of documents to be signed, as he did so, a Servant would come running through the hall "Sayyidi Hakim, Sayyidi Hakim!" The servant would call out, coming to a halt near the worn-out Qali, handing him a parchment detailing the latest news from across the sea, particularly their close friends in the Jade State "The Sharqi moon dims, may Allah help them." was all Hakim could say, before letting out a heavy sigh of exhaustion and leaning back against his seating, he'd then close his eyes and pinch the bridge of his nose "Prepare our camels."

The Missive would find it's way into the Emir's hands as he'd be surveying the new structures rising from the sands beneath him, eyeing the dome that would top the GSC with both awe, and approval "From humble beginnings indeed, may Allah see the fortunes of the GSC and the Emirate grow further!"

Hakim Bin Mutayr Al-Hattan reads over the invitation, a wide smile appearing on his face as he'd notice the intricate artwork of his daughter all around it "Excellent work, Zahra, I suppose all that's left is to continue on with the preparations!"

The Second Risaalah to the Vasoyevi - 24AD/2
[!]The Duke of Vasiyeva would find the Emir's reply brought to him in the form of a messenger, dressed in the typical Badawi fashion whilst carrying a letter bearing the seal of the Emir, should he be accepted in and the letter opened, it would read:
SpoilerIn response to:
“Salaam Alaykum, to those would engage with us in a dignified manner, we shall do the same in response,
It saddens us to hear of your people's past plight, and our hearts are filled with joy as we see your people's success in finding a new home, you must understand, Amir Andrik, that Banu Fakhr wish no ill will against you, nor are we like those who'd turned their backs against you, for if memory recalls, we endeavored to help in whatever manner we could to aid your people's settling, and offered our hands in friendship even prior to the founding of your camp.
We do not ask that you relinquish your aid for those under your care, nor do we ask that you shun them from your home, for it is understood amongst the Qali that it is the Amir's duty to hold himself to his word, and protect all those Allah had seen fit to put under his care, what we requested, and what we will request again, this time in a more specific and clear manner, is that we wish for a guarantee that your administration will not push for this heresy's spread into our lands, for as we sympathize your pain and plight, perhaps you could sympathize with the reality that whenever the Qali had made allies with those of foreign faiths, many a times had those very nations sought to corrupt our own people's faith, by sponsoring missionaries into our lands, even going to the extent of drawing together falsified texts ascribed to our prophets.
Banu Fakhr welcomes those of all races, cultures and creeds into our lands, everyone from the ancient Pagans to Canonist priests, however, we draw the line at those who actively seek to corrupt our own faith, Slander Allah and change our religion to suite their own interests, the Vasoyevi, of all people, would understand the importance and eternal struggle of keeping true to our faith and ways, la? so again, you would understand our concerns.
The Tribe had made clear, in our previous communication, that we did not wish for a conflict, your assumption that we would wish undue harm upon your citizens, by issuing at the end of your letter the warning that you did, would normally be taken as a great insult by the Badwi, yet we find the world is in need of minds desiring honest and proper communication, as already it is filled to the brim with arrogant and petty fools.
May Allah guide those who are astray to the light of I'iman Rashidun and soften the hearts of the disbelievers, and if not, break their backs!
SAYYID, Hakim Bin Mutayr Bin Qusa'i al-Hattan Al-Fakhr, Emir of the Fakhr Oasis and Sheikh of the Hattan

Risaalah to the Vasoyevi - 24AD
[!]At the break of dawn, on the 21st of Snow's maiden, the dwellers of Vasiyeva would look up with morning yawns and tired sighs, as a number of falcons could be seen swooping down from the sky above, perching themselves down atop the camp's interior structure, upon closer inspection, one of them would be found carrying a piece of parchment, addressed to the Duke of Vasiyeva, if opened it would read:
“Salaam Alaykum, those who offer us friendship, we offer the same twice over, and those who offer us enmity, we offer the same, twice over,
It has reached the attention of myself and the Ulamah of AL’IIMAN RASHIDUN, that a heretical sect of our faith spreads in your lands, those who follow this heresy refer to their deviance as “Al'Iiman Mutawahir”, this news is troubling to us, not only due to the fact that we had held yourself and your kin in high regard, or that we'd wished for a prosperous relationship between our people, but also for the fact throughout the centuries, we had fought to retain our religious solidarity, in face of all those who'd oppose us, be it against the duplicitous Canonists of old, or the ever-present daemonic threats against the living.
For these reasons we ask, for there to be any hope of good relations between our people, that this heretical sect receive NO Governmental support, approval or recognition whether formal or informal, from yourself or those who hold authority in your lands, it is not my desire, nor those of authority with me, to impose ourselves upon you or your people, nor do we seek to cause conflict or division, we act only in defense of our faith and it's unity, and for the sake of halting the potential of future conflict between us, May ALLAH forbid such an event from ever coming to pass.
May Allah guide those who are astray to the light of I'iman Rashidun and soften the hearts of the disbelievers, and if not, break their backs!
SAYYID, Hakim Bin Mutayr Bin Qusa'i al-Hattan Al-Fakhr, Emir of the Fakhr Oasis and Sheikh of the Hattan

Hakim Bin Mutayr Al-Hattan would be resting in the Masjid, contemplating over the recent events as he'd fiddle with the Tasbeeh wrapped around his palm, before promptly rising to his feet and making his way to the marketsquare, upon hearing the scholar's words he'd exclaim "Forgiveness is in the hands of Allah first, and so may Qahir be counted amongst the ranks of the Shuhadaá!"

Hakim Bin Mutayr Al-Hattan would slam his fist furiously against his tent-post, cursing the Suticans in every manner he could "The damn Kuffar, we had only just reached an agreement with the Hyspians and Orenian priests regarding your situation, and now, after you had gone there with peaceful intent, that they would commit such acts!" the Qali would then remain quiet for some time, processing the news, before mumbling under his breath "And they complain to us of the Hamad's Brutality, the damn hypocrites!"

Hakim Bin Mutayr Al-Hattan reads over the missive, a feeling of calm and relief now suddenly falling over him "Verily Allah grants peace to those who act in good faith, may we always act in good faith with our neighbors in Osanora/Sutica, and may they act in the same manner with us as before."

Hakim Bin Mutayr Al-Hattan would be in prayer at the Masjid as the final draft of the condemnation is brought to him, a sigh of sadness and regret would escape him as he'd exclaim "This has gone too far, Qahir, too far!"

Reads over the invitation with a smile "mabrouk, Utayr, may Allah grant you comfort in each other!" he'd exclaim, setting the paper down as he went to look for his fanciest robe!

Proclamation of the Dunes
in Announcements
Posted · Edited by AquaticWolf
Adel al-Hattan would carefully read over the proclamation, eyeing the portions detailing the sovereignty of the newly-founded Sultanate "Now to protect and safeguard our realm, may Allah grant our Amir a steady hand and mind to do so." he'd mutter, before heading back into his study to finish his designs for the new city.
